Description

In Fire and Ice: Timescapes Joan Myers gathers volcanoes photographs of iconic sites from all over the world, including Volcano National Park on the island of Hawai'i, Lanzarote, in the Canary Islands, Cotopaxi and Picincha in Ecuador, Nevada del Ruiz in Colombia, Mt. Erebus in Antarctica, Krakatoa in Indonesia and of course Mt. Etna and Pompeii. The work is breathtakingly beautiful, compelling and provocative by turns. Her essay reads like an adventure story, exploring the connection between fire and ice while describing her thrilling treks to ends of the Earth.

Reviews

In conjunction with the skillful printing of Damiani they are a visual feast in which virtually every page contains an image that can only be described as exceptional, both in its photography and printing. They leave you shaking your head in disbelief that such vistas exist, and grateful that Myers has recorded them.--Richard Rivera "New York Journal of Books"
